I bought some fabric to attempt this make your own blanket scarf thing. It should be uber simple. I am not completely incompetent. However, I can't cut a straight line...
A rotary cutter + yardstick are your best friends for cutting a straight line. Do you know any quilters - they'd probably have them.

I have an empty house right now. The dogs are at the groomers even. I'm doing laundry and sitting here. It's supposed to be 75 degrees today. So beautiful! I should get outside though.
I went to the movies all by myself today. It was glorious. I saw Selma. I am now wrecked.
I seem to remember this question being asked, but I believe there were probably around 50 people in the theatre (early show, plus fewer seats because they're recliners) and I was one of what I'm pretty sure were 4 white people.

I went to a funeral today, and I have to spend 3 hours at work tomorrow. Then I have two Super Bowl parties for which I'm making 3 dishes. Are there any federal holidays coming up? I need an extended restful weekend.
My mom and I spent the afternoon re-painting the kitchen ceiling. Tomorrow we do the walls. I haaaate painting, but my mom loves it, which is why I waited to start this project until she was coming to town. I'm treating her to lunch and a mani/pedi as a thank you gift at the end of the week because I seriously don't know what I'd do without her on projects like this.

Colors and pictures?
Boring cream, but I'm excited about the pretty border I was able to find to cover up the areas where the former owners screwed up their own (hideous) border. I'll post pics when it's completely finished next weekend.

Presidents' Day is February 16 (2 weeks from Monday).
I just finished "Q Squared." 2curlydogs thank you SO MUCH for the recommendation. I loved it. I'm almost done with "I, Q" now. It had a rather hilarious nod to The Princess Bride.

I'm so glad you liked it I should re-read it. And I should pick up "i, Q".
I'm watching Despicable Me for the first time. It's cute.Â
I for real (not ironically) like the intro song. (I'm having bad bad day).
I have the soundtrack to the sequel (the one with the bad bad day song) and I love it.
I'm on Day 6 of my sucky cold and I've reached the phase where it hurts soo much to blow my nose no matter how much moisturizer I smear on. But, it's not the flu so I shouldn't complain.

I have not! Do I need to make another trip to Ye old book shoppe?
Remember a few weeks ago when we were talking about the correct way to wear jeans with booties and the consensus was to cuff them (complete with tutorial links)? I wore them that way to book club and one lady said "cute! You're like a hipster!" I'm not sure if that was a compliment....

Nah. I've been wearing them that way since I saw my super-fashionista SIL in October and she was wearing them that way. DH said it looked funny, but I told him he knows nothing.
